Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ September 05, 2023 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A24A0189. RICHARD S. BRYSON v. THE STATE.

In 2015, Richard S. Bryson pleaded guilty to aggravated child molestation and other crimes. In July 2023, Bryson filed a motion to vacate his conviction. The trial court dismissed the motion, and Bryson filed this appeal.1 We lack jurisdiction.

A petition to vacate or set aside a conviction is not one of the established procedures for challenging the validity of a judgment in a criminal case, and an appeal from the trial court’s ruling on such a motion must be dismissed. Roberts v. State, 286 Ga. 532, 532 (690 SE2d 150) (2010); Harper v. State, 286 Ga. 216, 218 (1), (2) (686 SE2d 786) (2009). Because Bryson is not authorized to collaterally attack his conviction in this manner, this appeal is hereby DISMISSED.

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia Clerk’s Office, Atlanta,____________________ 09/05/2023 I certify that the above is a true extract from the minutes of the Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Witness my signature and the seal of said court hereto affixed the day and year last above written.
